error definition
a mistake by a judge in procedure or in substantive law, during a hearing, upon
petitions or motions, denial of rights, during the conduct of a trial (either granting
or denying objections), on approving or denying jury instructions, on a judgment
not supported by facts or applicable law or any other step in the judicial process.
If a majority of an appeals court finds an error or errors which affect the result,
or a denial of fundamental rights such as due process, the higher court will reverse
the lower court's error in whole or in part (the entire judgment or a part of it),
and remand (send it back) with instructions to the lower court. Appeals courts often
find errors which have no prejudicial effect on the rights of a party and are thus
harmless error.
